Due to a mis-assembly issue (on all figures) it is entirely impossible to achieve the mode suggested in Hasbro's instructions.

http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Mixmaster_%28ROTF%29

According to that, Takara Tomy's instructions have a different battle mode configuration based on the mis-assembly.

In regards to shooting pics of this mode (Note, this toy is the same in both countries so they both share the same pics):

Should we use the JP version for both Hasbro and Takara? If so, I'm going to need a scan or large photo of the instructions. Should anyone be so inclined as to provide such I would be much obliged.

Should we separate the photo records for these toys because of the transformation difference or should we just include both transformations under the one mode?

If we don't use Takara Tomy's instruction for both toys should I get as close to Hasbro's as I can and call it a day?

P.S. - I don't like this toy. Not one bit.

Does this help?

It's tiny (you can zoom in with a right-click, but it zooms in on only one portion), but you gotta give credit to Takara for being creative with how they display something as simple as instructions.  :)

As far as forms go, I think we should probably just go with one (well, three: robot, cement mixer, this pile of mess), but still show both configurations (Hasbro and Takara).

Thanks for the link! I didn't realize that was still online.

Cool, done and done!
